Looking deep inside my self
In a lonely two-man cell
I sigh for my mother
And the others who cried out for help, oh well
Something's gotta give
But I know you're gonna take from me
I remember VCR's
When lies were hard to prove
Now we've got screens and TV's in our jeans
But those lies never meant less to you
Something's gotta give
But I know you're gonna take from me
I've harmonized with angels
I've danced with devils too
I'm not one to blame
Just getting for change
And I know that it better come soon
Something's gotta give
But I know you're gonna take from me
Break, break, break
Break me down
I'm losing hope on what I've found
On silent roads
Oh something's gotta give
So do just what your told
Hustlers born before 13
A whisper in the night
Making their way through handcuffs and pray
The tube says they're doing alright
Something's got to give
But I know you're gonna take from me
Oh so love why'd you linger inside of my sheets
When the feeling of waking up takes you from me
I can't hold you close this way
I used to believe
Father roll me down my grave I need some relief
Break, break, break
Break me down
I'm losing hope on what I've found
On silent roads
Oh something's got to give
So do just what you're told
Break me down
I'm losing hope on what I've found
Something, something's got to give
So do just what you're told
